Need opinions

I'm looking at putting in a Kenwood 6980 or a Pioneer Avic 930bt.
Does anyone have opinions or which one they would choose over the other???
Thanks

Ive never ran pioneer but I've had good luck with Kenwood. I'm currently running a Kenwood unit with nav and all the good stuff and had zero issues.

The Pioneer Avic 950bt looks to be what I'm leaning towards....

I love pioneer, seems to be the best bang for buck units...

Two solid choices, really with head units it comes down to the general features Nav, bluetooth, sat radio, and aesthetics.

For the price difference you get a remote, and a bump in pre-amp voltage which isn't overly much. Both look like solid navigation (might pay a premium for the Garmin name on the Kenwood) with live traffic (key in my mind nowadays) Pioneer is lacking a USB input (but says optional) but you get a SD card slot which is almost as good.

The Pioneer is superior in the audio department even with the lower pre-amp voltage. The pioneer has a 24bit D/A converter, 8-band EQ verse the useless 3-band (kenwood.)


I think you'll be good with either unit. Enjoy!
